We're getting lots of lovely comments about our Remembrance Poppy's on our gates and front fence, but polite reminder to the person who helped themself to one, they're not free! They were funded by our young people so it's disappointing to see them being stolen!

Manchester had severe flooding earlier this year, one of the impacts of the floods was a huge amount of rubbish carried by the flood waters and deposited along the banks of the Mersey aswell as in the river itself.

Yesterday a team of our leaders joined forces with a team from Venture-Out to do a litter pick paddle.

We removed 21 bags of rubbish along with several bikes, tyres and even shopping trollies

Well done and thank you to all involved!

Today we are remembering John Constable a former Scout who recently passed away.

John lived in Chorlton for 70 years and was a Scout for many years at 38th Manchester (Holy Name) Scout Group. Holy Name has unfortunately since closed, but Scouting in Chorlton is thriving and John’s family have chosen Chorlton Scout Group as their nominated charity for any donations made at his Funeral.

Chorlton Scouts are honoured that John’s family have chosen to donate to us in his memory. The John Constable Fund will be ring fenced by the group and used as a dedicated fund to support fellow scouts in financial need to access opportunities within Scouts.
